SWNOVELS Chapter Give Up!
Alessandro covered his ear with his hand and looked at her with annoyance.
'Woman looks attractive when they speak softly not when they screech' Autumn rolls her eyes. 'Good, I don't want to attract you either' Alessandro huffed.
'My taste in woman is not that bad as well' he retorted, both glaring at each other, Gabriel watched the scene through rearview and pursed his lips to hide the smile. He knows his boss very well and can confidently say that his ego was badly hurt by Ms. Banner and he was fuming internally as he could not say anything to this woman because of the title she has.
'I want to see my car in your parking right after I return from work' she demanded, occasionally looking at him and Gabriel.
'You can use one of mine, your car looks so small like a baby in front of my collection' Alessandro feels helpless in front of this woman, and he has yet to figure out why.
'Obviously, she is my baby and don't you dare say a single word. Mine is much better than you're this so called expensive car' she scrunches up her nose in the end while looking to the interior of his car.
'I give up' raising his hands he admitted his defeat, since she had sit down in the car, he hasn't read a single work of the file his brother has sent to him.
'Gabriel, you've listened right?' Gabriel nodded his head quickly, Autumn exhaled and turned her head to look on the straight road.
'By the way, we have list down some good kindergarten schools, you can go through them as well, choose anyone and we both will go for admitting them.' After a silence for more than a five minutes, Alessandro remembered why on first place he wanted to give her a ride.
'Sure, send me the prospectuses of each school and I will go through each one of them' she said to no one in particular, he nodded and looked at Gabriel, the message delivered through eye contact and Gabriel sighed, one more task adds on in his list, for some reason he was having feeling that in future his work will be more related to Ms. Banner and young Martini's rather than of his own boss.
'Will you inform your colleagues about me?' a question suddenly clicked to him and instantly he gave voice to those words, Autumn turned her head and looked at him confused.
'I mean that the father of your children is the CEO of the company' Autumn pouted her lips while thinking, she was calculating all sort of reactions she can receive if tells them the truth.
'Speaking truth, they won't believe me because practically it seems impossible' she sighed.
'And they don't need to know who is the father of my kids, it is my personal matter which I don't want to discuss with anyone!
'Crap' Alessandro muttered quietly, he was expecting from her to reveal their connection, he should not have forgotten that the mother of his kids was not at all affected by his charm nor she was impressed by his wealth, in fact what he noticed was she despised only, a bitter fact for him.
'So you suggest to keep the relation hidden?' Autumn nodded.
'I will appreciate, if you will treat me like other employees while we are in the office or the work that is related to company' while they were busy in talking they didn't realize that the car had been taken to basement where there is a specific spot for his car parking.
'We have reached' pulling the hand break, Gabriel informed him, sighing Alessandro unlocked the door.
'If that's you want, then fine I will respect your choice' he glanced one last time at her and headed towards the elevator that would take him directly to his floor.
'Oh my God, Autumn! How are you? Are your kids fine? Who kidnapped them and what was their motive?' the moment she stepped her foot in the department, Elizabeth's eyes caught her appearance and swiftly stood from her chair to rush to her and bombarded her with questions.
Autumn felt suffocated in her tight hug.
'Elizabeth, I need air' realizing she pulled back her hand and apologize embarrassingly, but again repeated her questions.
'They are fine, and I don't know who were the ones who kidnapped I took help of police' placing her bag on her work table she answered her question.
'But why did they kidnap?' she was eager to know Autumn knew until she won't tell her she will not let her begin her work.
'They needed money' she felt bad to lying to her but it was for best, she does not want to make an impression on her colleagues that she was taking advantage when it was all her hard work all these years.
'Gosh, how can they do this with small kids, they would be scared, you should have taken more leaves and stayed with them' she scolded her for being so reckless.
'They are fine don't worry' she placed her hand on her shoulder and pushed it lightly.
'let's begin the work' she sinks on her chair and open her laptop.
'The deal with Harris is cancelled' Autumn's finger trembled, the deal was the reason her boys had to go through the misery and see such a cruel people, her hand fisted, but she composed herself. 'Why?' she shrugged.
'It was CEO's decision, so no one argued' Autumn act like surprised.
'Mr. Martini made a bad decision this time, it was such a wonderful project' Autumn felt sad because she had worked so hard for this project but it almost cost her the life of her twins.
'Excuse me, Ms. Banner! Mr. Martini is calling you in his office' the staff boy entered in to the room and passed the order of Alessandro to her.
'Why he is calling you in his office?' Elizabeth asked surprise, Autumn forced a meekly smile on her lips.
'I think I should go to find out'
